Editor’s Introduction

“Introduction: Fantastic Science/Scientific Fantasy”
Brian Attebery

Hidden within the genre term science fiction is a powerful oxymoron. Science isn’t fictional; fiction isn’t science. But of course, science and fiction are indissolubly linked, as are science and fiction’s more extreme extension: fantasy. In 2015 the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts was organized around the theme of “The Scientific Imagination.” Imagination is a little less provocative than fiction; a lot less than fantasy, and yet if you look carefully at conference title and conference theme, the apparent paradox is still there, though buffered by capital letters and quotation marks and extra descriptors like “in the Arts.” Guests and participants were implicitly invited to find common ground between observation and deliberate impossibility, between the truths of the physical world and those we seek in stories of the unreal.

Guest of honor James Morrow has always relished contradictions. His fiction is cynical and generous, bleak and optimistic, tragic and wildly funny. He has never been known as a hard science fiction writer: his characters rarely make their way into space, never solve their personal problems by making technological breakthroughs in the manner of a space opera hero. Yet few writers are more dedicated to exploring the scientific imagination: the ways we use science to construct models of reality and the self. In novels such as Towing Jehovah (1994), The Last Witchfinder (2006), and Galápagos Regained (2015), Morrow steers a perilous path between the Scylla of religious belief and the Charybdis of nihilism. He takes on the biggest themes and challenges the master narratives of religion, history, and even science, inviting us to see how each of these is a human construct. I strongly recommend any of his novels as well as his new collection, Reality by Other Means, published by Wesleyan University Press. We are pleased to be able to publish Morrow’s Guest of Honor address, which looks at imaginative literature as a form of philosophical thought experiment, a game of world views. Rather than dividing off the science of Newton and Darwin from the magical worlds of Tolkien or Le Guin, he groups them together as fellow explorers of the world of what Samuel Delany would call subjunctivity: the great “what if.”

Joan Slonczewski is likewise not the typical hard sf writer, not only because her name is Joan rather than John, but also because her science explores the slippery, messy stuff of life rather than the cold equations of celestial mechanics. When I say “her science,” I am speaking literally: Slonczewski is a professor of biology at Kenyon College and co-author of one of the standard microbiology textbooks as well as over half a dozen major sf novels. Her breakthrough book, A Door into Ocean (1986), incorporates not only her professional expertise on genetics but also a feminist challenge to the essentialism of sociobiology and a deep pacificism that grows from Slonczewski’s Quaker background. Slonczewski’s participation at the Conference included an evening reading, hosted by Sherryl Vint, and an interview with Derek J. Thiess. She and Thiess continue their conversation in a follow-up email interview included here.

The third Guest of Honor at the Conference was Colin Milburn, who holds the Gary Snyder Chair in Science and the Humanities at the University of California at Davis, with a joint appointment in the English Department and the Science and Technology Studies Program. Starting with a double PhD at Harvard, in both History of Science and English and American Literature and Language, Milburn is particularly interested in places where C. P. Snow’s famous Two Cultures become one. He has done major work on nanotechnology and its cultural influence and is currently studying computer gaming. His address at the Conference considers games as another sort of Gedankenexperiment and, as he says, as “an exercise in applied science fiction,” a phrase that could also be argued to describe the contemporary world.

The International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts and its affiliated Association have always made efforts to encourage and recognize the achievements of younger scholars in our field. The 2015 winner of the student award, which as of 2016 is named the David G. Hartwell Emerging Scholar Award, is Taylor Evans, a PhD candidate at the University of California at Riverside. His paper on race, technology, and early science fiction—or, in Hugo Gernsback’s singularly tone-deaf coinage, “scientifiction”—is published here in an expanded and peer-reviewed version. It traces a connection between the pseudo-science of race and the emerging genre, which bought into a broader cultural model of epistemology that, as Evans says, was always “centered on a subject that is implicitly white and male.” Evans’s essay reminds us that the imagination, even the scientific imagination, is never unconstrained. It reproduces the assumptions and blind spots of the society in which it arises.

Finally, Benjamin Robertson’s essay on China Miéville’s genre-challenging novel The Scar looks at standard ways of distinguishing between science fiction and fantasy. The former carries the cognitive stamp of approval and looks to the future; the latter is seen as escapist and retrograde. Yet in much of Miéville’s work and that of other contemporary writers of Fantastika (to use John Clute’s umbrella term), rationality and knowledge are introduced in fantastic, paradigm-breaking ways that challenge us to read the fiction multiply, as participating in two or more genres simultaneously. Furthermore, that double- or manifoldness is a better way of representing reality than the single thread of traditional science fictional narrative—or conventional realism, for that matter. When truly unleashed, the scientific imagination is powerful enough to challenge its own modes of thought. I was sorry not to be at the 2015 Conference in person—professional duties (or, to be honest, a chance to play in a concert with Bela Fleck) kept me away. So it is a double pleasure to put this issue together and experience the gathering virtually.

Introduction: But Why Does It Have to Be Political?

Brian Attebery

I recently taught a course in young adult literature in which I deliberately challenged myself to represent the current state of the field. That meant no Little Women or Kim or The Secret Garden: old favorites that I still think students should read. Instead, I picked a set of books that were no more than a decade old, with some dating from the past year. Here’s the list:

  • Patrick Ness, The Rest of Us Just Live Here
  • Stephen Graham Jones, Mongrels
  • Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
  • Libba Bray, Beauty Queens
  • Elizabeth Acevedo, The Poet X
  • Aiden Thomas, Cemetery Boys
  • Tomi Adeyemi, Children of Blood and Bone
  • Eric Gansworth, Apple (Skin to the Core)

Of these, I had only read three and previously taught two. They represent a number of genres—or subgenres, if we count Young Adult as a genre. Three are overt fantasy (Ness, Thomas, Adeyemi), or maybe four or five if we classify horror (Graham Jones) and surreal satire (Bray) as fantasy. Most have won awards or strong commendations; indeed, I was dreading reading some because they seemed a little too worthy, too timely and sincere. But by the time my students and I immersed ourselves in each, we were rewarded with charm, wit, fresh approaches to narrative, unique points of view.

I confess that I rarely pay much attention to student evaluations any more. I know that my brain will dismiss the positive ones and focus on the negative, which will say that there was too much reading and that the instructor only wanted to hear his side of things (i.e., interpretations grounded in the texts). But this time I wanted to know what they thought. Were they as engaged as I was? The answer was, yes. It was the most positive set of evaluations I have seen for many years. They liked the selections, and they generally singled out whichever book they had been assigned for a group presentation, meaning that they took some ownership. However, as always there was one clunker: a student who wanted to know why they had to read books that were so political.

Political? They didn’t seem particularly political to me, although certainly Adeyemi’s fantasy version of Africa incorporates some of that continent’s historical struggles and, as attested by the author, serves as an allegory for recent racial injustices. Bray’s novel satirizes a certain political segment that we could term the military-industrial-pageant complex. However, I think this anonymous student was reacting to having to inhabit identities that were foreign and uncomfortable. The most political thing about the reading list is that the protagonists—and the authors—are all other than straight, white, and male. For my rural Western students, that meant empathizing with the other: urban folks, people of color, individuals who are Latinx, Indigenous, gay, transgender, and so on. I should point out that I was also thanked, not anonymously, by many of the students for making them feel included. One student voluntarily shared her family’s Day of the Dead traditions. Another came out as transgender (not obvious in a Zoom-based class) and a third mentioned passing Cemetery Boys along to their transgender partner.

But back to “political.” Not to be viewed as political is a perquisite only granted to dominant groups. It isn’t “political” to assert one’s right to speak as straight, white, cisgender, or, in this country, Christian. Or rather, one needn’t even assert such a right; one can assume it. Anything else is pushing against inertia or overt hostility and is thus a political act. Making people uncomfortable is a political act. Inviting them to identify with, and thus perhaps be motivated to act in favor of, any other kind of identity is a political act. This isn’t, perhaps, the most urgent or effective kind of political action we can undertake, but it is the kind particularly suited to us who study and teach stories and storytelling. It is our obligation and our privilege.

All of the articles in this issue of JFA are about politics, in one form or another, which is to say that all concern identity, expression, and justice in situations where those things are skewed or suppressed. First up is Alejandro Soifer’s article on Argentine science fiction’s resurgence in the wake of that nation’s turn-of-the-millennium crisis. Soifer quotes critic Kulrat Ares’s judgment that such fiction is a way to deal with “the real after the death of realism,” a judgment that resonates with Ursula K. Le Guin’s call, in her speech to the National Book Foundation, for “realists of a larger reality.” Le Guin saw such a larger vision as a way to reassert hope. The apocalyptic and dystopian fictions in Soifer’s study seem to offer little in the way of optimism. However, if the problems are based in structures that have seemed inescapable—capitalism, colonialism, caste—then there is hope to be found in destruction. Soifer points to a “new beginning” for the genre, and perhaps that beginning extends outward to the world of experience.

Where Soifer focuses on dismantling inherited patterns, Jalondra A. Davis explores ways to bring older traditions into the future: specifically the African diasporic tradition of the mermaid, which offers alternative ways of being in the world. As Davis says, the mermaid figure, and particularly the narratives that link it with captivity and the trans-Atlantic crossing, can “disrupt the hierarchical and ecologically disastrous category of the human.” Redirecting the term “genre” from texts to identities, Davis demonstrates that “other genres of the human” than Eurocentric, masculinist norms can lead to new ways of knowing and being, which she finds enacted in mermaid stories by Rivers Solomon and Nalo Hopkinson. Though fantasy often seems like a retrospective form, Davis makes a strong case for its inclusion in the category of Afrofuturism: these fictions, and the mythic heritage upon which they are built, offer views both back and ahead.

Vincent Albarano’s article “Demon Dolls and Quadead Zones,” which focuses on “Badfilm,” might seem to be less political than the rest of the issue. Bad films are just that—bad, right? It’s an aesthetic assessment of a marginal group of movies, except that qualitative judgments are always about more than technique and scope. When inexpensive video equipment and unconventional distribution opened up filmmaking to outsiders such as Chester N. Turner and Todd Cook, it also enabled their depiction of an unfiltered reality that had never been shown on movie screens. Their films both expand and subvert notions of realism and thus allow for representation of racial and class issues that were new to cinema. Albarano suggests that much can be gained by setting aside, at least temporarily, questions of aesthetic value and looking instead at what the camera has recorded and the viewpoint from which it is looking. There may be larger implications here about genre and audience. Genres such as horror, fantasy, and children’s literature and works by women and non-elite writers have likewise been deemed aesthetically inferior without examination of the judges’ own limited perceptions.

M. Keith Booker and Isra Daraiseh seem to be writing about the contrary question: could a novel called Frankenstein in Baghdad be anything other than political? Set in a time and place fraught with tension—an Iraq plagued by violence and occupied by a foreign power—Ahmed Saadawi’s novel does not dodge the tensions of ideology and the traumas of war. And yet, as Booker and Daraiseh demonstrate, it is nevertheless “an often playful postmodern work” that extends the notion of invasion from literal armies of occupation to the kind of intellectual colonization that accompanies the spread of popular culture. The novel invokes Frankenstein’s fragmented and reassembled creature as a metaphor for a fragmented, postmodern existence that is a global, rather than a local, condition. I am sure that an American reader will not get everything there is to perceive in the book, but with Daraiseh and Booker’s guidance, we may find insight into our own media-colonized, fragmented lives. We might call this reading “Frankenstein in Baghdad in America.”

Finally, Christopher Robinson looks at a pair of horror films: 1992’s Candyman contextualized by its 2021 remake. The earlier film, says Robinson, touched on “the political unconscious of the nation,” especially with regard to racial anxieties and taboos. Its setting in an infamous ghettoized housing complex and its hints at interracial desire make the title character, who is Black, into a sort of touchstone for viewers. Depending on one’s own race and social position, he might be seen as a victim or a monster, guilt-charged nightmare or supernatural avenger. In the remake written by director Nia DaCosta with Jordan Peele and Win Rosenfeld, the implied or unconscious content becomes overt. The new Candyman invites us to look more carefully at the old, which Robinson analyzes as a complex response to, and critique of, the Reagan-era politicization of race. This was the era when politicians capitalized on fears of Black male rapists and welfare queens—when race could be used to mobilize the anxieties of an electorate and divert attention from real social problems. Alas, we still live in that era, though we may need Candyman remakes from time to time to remind us of that fact. Horror can never be confined to the screen. Its impact is always political if not always unconscious. Why do stories have to be political? Because we live within and upon injustice. We need stories that tell us so and to remind us that there might be other possibilities.

Introduction: Everything Old Is New Again

 

One of the core facts about fantasy as a genre is that it takes up older story elements and reshapes them, as Tolkien did with Beowulf and George MacDonald did with the Medieval stories about Lilith. Somewhere in the background of virtually every classic fantasy text is an oral traditional one: a fairy tale, sacred hymn, legend, ballad, or epic. And since these sorts of folk texts define cultures and help us find our identities within those cultures, fantasy matters in ways that are not obvious to readers who can’t see beyond the surface of glittering spells and furry feet and outdated social systems. These once-oral texts are master narratives: stories within which we inscribe our own life stories.

But there are other sorts of cultural narratives as well, other masterplots of the sort that cultural commentators tend to call myths. America has a number of these: the myth of the self-made individual, the myth of the empty and endless frontier, the myth of racial superiority, the myth of manifest destiny. One of the tasks of artists is to examine such myths, to test them against history and to conduct thought-experiments with them to see where they might be leading or misleading us.

An interesting development in fantastic art is a turn toward treating prior works of the imagination the same way those works treated traditional tales and legends. Rather than going back to European Märchen or classical fable, a number of writers are drawing on Gothic tales or classic fantasies, not so much as raw material but as objects of interrogation. One of the earliest and still one of the finest of these is Geoff Ryman’s Was, from 1992. Was is about The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum and about the 1939 musical adaptation of Baum’s book and about its star Judy Garland, but mostly about America itself as a place of cruelty and despair and hope and magic. Ryman treats Oz as the cultural myth that it has become.

I have recently been reading a number of worthy successors to Was. These are stories that go beyond parody or pastiche or homage to become both metafiction and cultural commentary. Nisi Shawl’s Everfair, for instance, not only interrogates colonial adventure stories such as H. Rider Haggard’s but also sneaks in a nod to pioneering fantasist Edith Nesbit, author of The Enchanted Castle and other subversive children’s books. John Kessel’s Pride and Prometheus juxtaposes two cultural myths or story tropes, the Jane Austenesque romance and the Mary Shelleyan Gothic. Theodora Goss also explores the borderline between the Gothic and an adjacent story territory, in this case the detective story, in The Strange Case of the Alchemist’s Daughter. And Kij Johnson recently won a World Fantasy Award for her novella The Dream-Quest of Vellitt Boe, which places a sensible academic heroine reminiscent of Dorothy Sayers’s Harriet Vane in a world created by H. P. Lovecraft. Matt Ruff’s Lovecraft Country goes further in taking on the horror writer’s problematic political and abysmal racial views. In a lighter vein (but still with a social point) Johnson has followed up The Dream-Quest with the delightful The River Bank, in which the world of Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows is enriched and critiqued by the intrusion of two determined females.

Perhaps it is not by coincidence, then, that all the articles in this issue of JFA have to do with new ways of looking at classic fantasy, often through the lens of other, more recent texts. Kathryn Walls, in “An Analogous Adversary: The Old Dispensation in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” reexamines a classic fantasy text by C. S. Lewis in light of his use of Biblical typology. That is the practice of reading the Old Testament as a prefiguration of the New, which is itself a kind of metanarrative doubling, or, if we add in Medieval applications of such typology to contemporary experience, a tripling.

Sean Ferrier-Watson looks at a more obvious example of revision of a classic text, Gregory Maguire’s Wicked, which reimagines L. Frank Baum’s Oz but in a very different way from Ryman’s. Ferrier-Watson performs what he calls an “existential reading” of Maguire’s novel and its green antiheroine Elphaba. He looks in particular at the way time, prophecy, and choice are intertwined for Elphaba and for the reader.

The ur-text in Clotilde Landais’s contribution is Alice in Wonderland and the filtering metafictional text is Aliss by Patrick Senécal, using Gérard Genette’s concept of the metalepsis, which is parallel with his time-jumping concepts of prolepsis and analepsis but involves not merely shifting the narrative backward or forward but out of the narrative timeline entirely. Metalepsis is usually considered to be a postmodern and metafictional technique, which it is in this case, but Landais suggests that it is also a way of enhancing the uncanny properties of Senécal’s novel.

Mariano Martín Rodríguez’s “The Literary Spoof Paper” is less obviously about metafictions but it does explore a form of intertextuality. The mock scientific paper is a genre that has received little attention in spite of the fact that it perfectly performs the sort of cognitive estrangement that critic Darko Suvin says is central to the genre of science fiction. Looking at examples by Isaac Asimov and others, Martín Rodríguez suggests that the use of scientific discourse in a text that is profoundly counterfactual not only serves as a way to critique science but also generates the sort of textual complexity that marks literary, rather than merely parodic, play.

Finally, in “The Lost Worlds of Arthur Conan Doyle’s Professor Challenger Series,” Conor Reid surveys Doyle’s most extended non-Sherlock-Holmes creation. Taking up the idea of the “lost world” as not merely a plot device and a way to exploit interest in various 19th-century expeditions into previously uncharted places, Reid connects Doyle’s interest in geographical exploration with his flirtation with spirituality Most explicitly in The Land of Mist, Doyle has his scientific stand-in, Professor Challenger, turn to, as the novel says, “fresh worlds to conquer. Having exhausted the sporting adventures of this terrestrial globe, he is now turning to those of the dim, dark and dubious regions of psychic research.” We can read these texts, which depict the use of scientific methods to explore—and potentially colonize—the world of the spirit as well as physical globe, as examples of intertextuality and what we might call intergenrefication. Like some of the recent examples mentioned above, these novels jam together seemingly incompatible textual varieties, in this case the scientific romance and the spiritualist tract, as a way to test both against one another and perhaps to encourage them to hybridize. Doyle’s hope seems to be that the genres thus mated together might produce new narrative models, new myths to live in.

Editor’s Introduction

“Introduction: Fictional Modes and Cultural Energy”
Brian Attebery

At any historical moment, certain ways of writing fiction particularly catch people’s attention. While writers might be working with a whole range of plots, themes, or genres, a few of those will seem more interesting, more important, more urgent than all the rest. Two novels may be equal in inventiveness and craft, but one will get the buzz. Sometimes the other will emerge later on, as society discovers its significance: a good example is Kate Chopin’s 1899 The Awakening, buried in sales in its day by Edward Noyes Westcott’s horse-trading novel David Harum. More often, the more famous work will continue to dominate discussions of its era and will attract more writers to its central problem or vision. Edward Bellamy’s best-selling novel Looking Backward (1887) led to a rash of similar utopian romances. Evidently conditions were right at the end of the nineteenth century for questioning economic systems and social norms: the sorts of things that utopian fiction can do. Social anxiety creates social energy, and the stories that best articulate the tension of the moment will create the greatest stir.

Right now among the many modes of fantastic literature, there is a lot of social energy in the idea of the past as something less than fixed. I have been reading a number of fascinating explorations of time travel and alternate history, stories in which humans find themselves facing an unlivable future and can only go forward by returning to the past to alter it. Kim Stanley Robinson’s Galileo and Kathleen Ann Goonan’s paired novels In War Times and This Shared Dream are standout examples. They straddle genres—historical fiction, alternate history, futuristic sf, and utopian fiction—because the thing they seek to do cannot be encompassed within any one of those genres. Underlying their vision is the idea that history is malleable. It is not so much that the events of the past can be changed, though that happens in the novels, but that collective memory is, like individual memory, continually reworked and reinterpreted.

Historians know this. There is no final word on something like the Industrial Revolution. Every time a historian approaches a topic with new data, a new theoretical perspective, or a new focus on previously unconsidered participants (women, minorities, workers, children, etc.), the past rearranges itself. Nothing is as it seemed; nothing means what we thought it did. And because society, like every member of it, is the product of its memories, the present isn’t what we thought it was either, nor is it headed toward the future that once seemed inevitable. Goonan is especially adept at showing how past and future are interdependent. Both are also necessary fictions; we cannot touch either one directly, but without them both, there is no meaningful present.

As certain futures promised us by science fiction become increasingly problematic or unreachable, maybe it is necessary to retreat and regroup. To go ahead, we need to go back, as Goonan and Robinson have done. As Karen Hellekson points out, the genre of alternate history can incorporate insights from postmodern philosophers and metahistorians: history is not the past: it is a story we tell about the past, and “the historian is complicit in this storytelling, not an objective, impartial recorder of events” (25). Thus, our narrowing vision of the future is counterbalanced by an increasingly unstable past. Alternate history seems to be one way to free the imagination. By going back and finding a new past, writers can, as it were, draw the bowstring back and thereby give time’s arrow a new trajectory. No wonder there is energy in such stories.

With a little stretching, all the articles in this issue might be said to deal with alternative pasts:

Alf Seegert, in “The Mistress of Sp[l]ices: Technovirtual Liaisons in Adolfo Bioy Casares’s The Invention of Morel,” examines a 1940 novel that not only revises literary history—retelling H. G. Wells’s The Island of Doctor Moreau—but also dramatizes the changeability of the historical record. The novel’s protagonist finds himself interacting with images preserved in a substantial, three-dimensional form by an extrapolated successor of the movie camera. In love with one of those recorded phantoms, he can only find happiness by rewriting the recorded past.

Kate Macdonald’s article, “Witchcraft and Non-conformity in Sylvia Townsend Warner’s Lolly Willows and John Buchan’s Witch Wood,” reads two novels from the 1920s that use Margaret Murray’s now-discredited history of European witchcraft to challenge contemporary mores. Though Murray was wrong in many of her claims about a widespread witch cult, her version of history proves to be a usable past for both Warner, attempting to construct a new feminist identity for her heroine, and Buchan, investigating contemporary issues of conformity, corruption, and responsibility projected back into the seventeenth century.

In Paula Brown’s “Gnostic Magic in Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell,” the radically altered, magical past of Susanna Clarke’s novel allows the author to explore a number of still-relevant issues, including the uses and misuses of knowledge. Brown argues that the central philosophy of the novel is a Romantic version of gnosticism, in which knowledge of the universe is intertwined with understanding of the self, and the latter is dependent on giving up a false knowledge of separateness from and superiority to other beings and the universe. The novel’s characters must unlearn many things, including their own history, in order to move forward.

Finally, in “Spells Out The Word of Itself, and Then Dispelling Itself”: The Chaotics of Memory and The Ghost of the Novel in Jeff Noon’s Falling out of Cars,”Andrew Wenaus considers Jeff Noon’s 2002 novel as an experiment in narrative “remixing”: its haunted protagonist learns to sample and rearrange her own troubled and noise-corrupted history in order to move forward. Wenaus argues that Noon is doing the same thing to literary history: transforming narrative into a chaotic but open-ended version of itself in order to move literature into a post-structuralist, post-historical future.
